The Packers will be down a receiver on Sunday against the Lions.

Wide receiver Jordy Nelson has been ruled out for the contest with the hamstring injury he suffered in last Sunday’s victory over the the Vikings. Nelson previously hurt the hamstring earlier this season, causing him to miss a game, and he’s also battled an ankle injury this year.

Nelson was never expected to play this week, starting with coach Mike McCarthy saying on Monday that he’d be pressed to get on the field against Detroit. He didn’t practice all week and the hope to have Nelson healthy for next week’s possible division-decider against the Bears likely kept the desire to play him this week at a minimum.

What a sissy , suck it up and be a man. This team is full of crybabies , there are always tons of them hurt. What a bunch of panzies. Jack Youngblood played with a broken leg , Ronnie Lott cut off part of his finger and these panzies cry over boo boos……………..
